Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

It's not clear what action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take to help you. Petitions need to ask for something specific from the Government or Parliament. They're not usually an effective way of getting speedy help with a personal case.

This might be something that your family in the UK could raise with their local MP. They can find out who that is here:

They might also be able to seek advice for you at their local Citizens' Advice Bureau. There is more information about immigration issues here:

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
